No charges expected

No charges are expected to be laid after a Sault Ste. Marie man succumbed to injuries he sustained in a Jan. 18 motor vehicle collation at the intersection of Great Northern Road and McNabb Street.
James Hoar, 60, of 39 VanDaele St., was injured in the collision and transported to hospital. Last Thursday, Sault Ste Marie Police Service learned from the coroner in Sudbury, where Hoar was being treated, that he had died.
The investigation into the collision revealed that Hoar was the passenger in a vehicle proceeding southbound on Great Northern Road, approaching McNabb Street, which was unable to stop and, as a result, rear ended a vehicle stopped at the intersection. Weather and road conditions were both factors in this collision.
